Thousands of people are reporting problems with the music streaming app.<\/p>\n<p>Earlier this morning, social media was flooded with frustrated comments as users began reporting issues with streaming music on the popular service. For some, the app would load, but songs wouldn&#8217;t play. For others, the app wouldn&#8217;t load at all. The issue seems to be affecting every version of Spotify, including the app, the web player, and the desktop app. <\/p>\n<h2>Spotify is investigating<\/h2>\n<p>Spotify <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/SpotifyStatus\/status\/1912487507616313838\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\" class=\"c-regularLink\">confirmed the issue<\/a> just before 9am ET, writing on X, &#8220;We&#8217;re aware of some issues right now and are checking them out!&#8221; The <a href=\"https:\/\/community.spotify.com\/t5\/Ongoing-Issues\/Downtime-April-16th-App-and-website-not-loading\/idi-p\/6922020?utm_source=X&amp;utm_medium=spotifycares&amp;utm_id=57615\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\" class=\"c-regularLink\">Spotify support page<\/a> later explained, &#8220;We&#8217;re seeing reports from users that the app isn&#8217;t loading properly or that they&#8217;re experiencing playback issues. Others report that they&#8217;re having issues accessing the Support site.&#8221; <\/p>\n<p><strong>Also:&nbsp;<\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.zdnet.com\/home-and-office\/home-entertainment\/are-you-an-aspiring-independent-author-spotifys-wants-to-buy-your-short-form-audiobook\/\"><strong>Are you an aspiring independent author? Spotify wants to buy your short-form audiobook<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/downdetector.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\" class=\"c-regularLink\">Reports on DownDetector.com<\/a> spiked at the same time, reaching around 50,000 reports just before 10am. Outage reports were on the decline by 11am, but that could be because users are either tired of reporting the problem or no longer feel the need to. <\/p>\n<p>The company hasn&#8217;t explained what caused the issue or when it expects to restore service. By 10:30am, speculation was swirling that the issue was the result of a hack, but SpotifyStatus on X <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/SpotifyStatus\/status\/1912516215865594264\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\" class=\"c-regularLink\">says that&#8217;s not true<\/a>. <\/p>\n<p>With <a href=\"https:\/\/newsroom.spotify.com\/company-info\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\" class=\"c-regularLink\">more than 675 million users<\/a>, Spotify is the world&#8217;s most popular music streaming app. <\/p>\n<p><!----><\/p>\n<h2>Worthwhile alternatives<\/h2>\n<p>If you&#8217;re looking for alternatives, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.zdnet.com\/home-and-office\/home-entertainment\/you-can-get-6-months-of-apple-music-for-3-right-now-heres-how\/\">Apple Music<\/a> and YouTube Music are the next most popular options, followed by Tidal and Qobuz. Of course, if you don&#8217;t use those services, your algorithm won&#8217;t be as perfectly tuned as your Spotify, but it&#8217;ll be good enough to get you through the day. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Also:&nbsp;<\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.zdnet.com\/article\/need-to-relax-this-new-iphone-feature-does-the-trick-for-me-heres-how\/\"><strong>Need to relax?
